Privacy, acreage, a workshop, and endless potential--this unique mountain property offers the opportunity to create something truly special in the heart of Northeast Tennessee. Situated on over 6 private acres just minutes from Mountain City, this property provides the peaceful setting so many buyers are searching for. Tucked away on a hillside and surrounded by mature trees, you'll enjoy the privacy and seclusion that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Here, neighbors are out of sight, and the beauty of mountain living takes center stage. Once a beautiful mountain home, this property is ready for a new owner to restore its charm and unlock its full potential. The home has been occupied in recent years but will require updates, repairs, cleanup, and general improvements. Featuring a basement, existing homesite, water, power, septic, and driveway access, many of the costly fundamentals are already in place--offering a valuable head start for the buyer with vision. With some clearing, cleanup, and sweat equity, this property has the potential to become a truly remarkable mountain retreat. One of the property's hidden treasures is the potential view. Years of natural growth have obscured what was once a beautiful mountain vista, but with selective clearing, there is an opportunity to reclaim the scenery and create an exceptional private setting. A standout feature of this property is the detached workshop/garage. Whether you're a mechanic, woodworker, contractor, craftsman, ATV enthusiast, hobbyist, or simply need extra storage space, this building offers tremendous value and possibilities. For many buyers, the workshop alone will be worth a closer look. Location is another major advantage. Enjoy the privacy of country living while remaining just minutes from Mountain City and within easy driving distance of Watauga Lake, Doe Mountain Recreation Area, the Appalachian Trail, Boone, North Carolina, and Abingdon, Virginia. Spend your days hiking, fishing, boating, hunting, ATV riding, or simply enjoying the beauty of the mountains before returning home to your own private retreat. Johnson County continues to attract those seeking cooler summers, stunning scenery, outdoor recreation, and a slower pace of life. Whether you're searching for a renovation project, mountain getaway, homestead, investment opportunity, or future forever home, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, acreage, infrastructure, and potential. Properties offering this much privacy with an existing home, workshop, utilities, and acreage are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Bring your vision, your creativity, and your plans. The privacy is already here. The acreage is already here. The workshop is already here. Now it's time to make this mountain property shine once again.
